All my hunting commissions come from another world?

The Hai Si clan always manages to refresh Zhou Si's worldview time and time again.

After watching for a while, Zhou Si pulled her head back from the window.

"Hey, friend in the back, do you need me to ask you to come out?"

As Zhou Si pressed the flashing orb into the launcher, he stood up and focused his gaze on a wall not far away.

"Why are humans breaking into our factory?"

A dark figure emerged from behind the wall, its voice distorted and strange, like a synthesized sound of some kind of mechanical friction.

Black fascia and muscles twisted and mixed together, a kind of gelatinous substance formed a clothing-like structure on the body, and bones that reflected a metallic luster were exposed. This was a real, highly human-like Haizi.

Zhou Si had seen this thing before, though only in a game.

The first to speak, Haisi, was given this name as the first sea creature to utter human language.

Of course, Zhou Si usually calls him Brother Meili.

"Your existence is very strange. Even powerful individuals in a large group cannot change their cellular structure as freely as you. You can even transform into one of our fellow beings."

The first speaker's voice was still strange, but that did not prevent Zhou Si from sensing the surprise in his words; the Hai Si rarely showed such emotions.

"Humans, a large group is willing to accept your existence, you must..."

The sharp sound of sword and shield rubbing together interrupted the speaker's words. Zhou Si disassembled his shield and axe into sword and shield mode, and looked at Hai Si in front of him with a sarcastic expression.

"You mean you want me to turn a blind eye to the suffering before me? And then become one of you, some kind of neither-heaven-nor-ghost, to continue harming others?"

"I don't understand. Your fellow citizens are using their own flesh and blood to sustain your people's survival. This should be a win-win situation, so why...?"

"I'm too lazy to explain why, you're not worthy to hear it."

"All you need to know is that your hunter grandfather is about to send you down to join those 'newborns'."

Before Zhou Si could finish speaking, he lowered his head, closed his eyes, and raised his hand to launch the flashing gem.

The blinding light shone again, illuminating half of the sky above Primia. The Rhodes Island squad, which was heading towards Primia City, saw the light on the horizon.

White-haired Felin sat in the car, staring blankly at the darkening sky, and looked somewhat bewildered at the blond Kuranta who was driving beside her.

"what is that?"

"I'm not sure, but we may need to speed things up."

......

Returning to the point of view, although the First Speaker, as a Sea Heir, does not rely solely on sight to obtain information, the intense flash not only damaged its vision but also caused it to fall into a brief state of dizziness.

Zhou Si was clearly not going to let such an opportunity slip by; he had become increasingly adept at the hunters' fighting style.

In the darkness, the hunter wielding a shield and axe glided across dozens of meters to stand before the humanoid Sea Spirit, leaving two massive sword wounds on its chest with his dark green blade.

If it hadn't taken a step back in time, the sword should have cut it in two.

What would be a serious injury to an ordinary creature had no effect on Hai Si. The first speaker opened its mouth, and a strange, eerie, song-like death voice came from its mouth. The surrounding environment became silent at this moment, but Zhou Si could notice that the carnivorous Terror Fish behind him were all boiling over at this moment.

In just a few minutes, their bodies grew back bones and sharp teeth, and the Netherworld Mark began to spread throughout the factory. Large numbers of Terror Fish poured out of the factory and headed towards Zhou Si.

When he turned around again, the wounds of the First Speaker had already healed. Its two black claws flashed a blue light in the air and slammed into the shield in Zhou Si's right hand.

Weak! Utterly weak!

Zhou Si's hand holding the shield remained motionless. The power of this first speaker was not even as great as the power of the entangled frog's charged punch. Zhou Si slid forward and closed in on the retreating first speaker, unleashing a standard bottle-building combo of two consecutive slashes and a spinning slash.

At this moment, Zhou Si's sword was already gleaming.

He turned sideways and sheathed his sword into his shield, the accumulated energy surging into the shield, and a faint light appeared on the shield. But this was not the end. Zhou Si sheathed his sword into the shield again, the mechanism contracted rapidly, accompanied by a piercing friction sound between the blade and the shield.

A straight sword gleaming with red light appeared in Zhou Si's hand.

The dinosaur that had escaped from the factory was now behind Zhou Si. He turned around and slashed the dinosaur that was leaping towards him in two, the dark green energy exploding on the dinosaur's body.

Then, something happened that shocked the first speaker.

The body of the severed fish, along with the surrounding fish touched by the dark green energy, suddenly began to dissolve, turning into a pool of liquid.

Chapter Eleven: Enemies of the Masses

Zhou Si looked at the pool of sea creatures on the ground with some surprise, not expecting the specially made poison bottle to be so effective.

That's right, this is one of the little surprises Zhou Si prepared for the group: a poison vial specifically designed to target Hai Si cells.

Zhou Si kept wielding his red sword, and without exception, all the sea creatures that were attacked turned into the same liquid.

"What power is this?"

For the first time, surprise and doubt appeared in the noisy and disgusting voice of the first speaker. The sea creatures felt a burning pain the moment they were touched by the red blade. The sea creature cells in their bodies were decomposed and inertized by some special force. The interval between launching the attack and turning into liquid was less than 5 seconds.

Because the Haisi cells have entered an inert state, they are even unable to transmit information about the toxins back to the large group network, a situation they have never encountered before.

Do you like the little gifts I prepared for you?

Zhou Sichao, the first to speak, grinned and charged at it again, shield and axe in hand.

Shesa's toxins are not ordinary biological toxins; in essence, they are energy bodies composed of Honkai energy. Through the properties of Honkai energy and her ability to control electromagnetic forces as a familiar of the Herrscher of Thunder, she erodes and decomposes life forms tainted by these toxins.

Furthermore, since it is composed of pure energy, Zhou Si could theoretically re-edit this toxin to make it more targeted. However, this operation would require him to have a very strong understanding of Honkai energy and the target organism.

At this point, some clever kids might realize, how could Zhou Si, an agricultural college student, know about these things? Could it be that there's a genius scientist who excels in both the Honkai and biological fields helping Zhou Si research toxins targeting Hai Si?

Yes, brother, yes.

In his heart, Zhou Si once again thanked Dr. Mebius, who was far away in another world. If you were to ask who he had the best relationship with in the Honkai world, it might be Alicia, but if you were to ask who helped him the most, Zhou Si would give Dr. Mebius his unanimous vote.

The silver-haired girl's mission requirements only stated that he could be the only one to carry out the task, but it never mentioned that he was not allowed to seek help in the group. After learning about the creature Hai Si, Dr. Mebius volunteered to help him study Hai Si's weaknesses.

This special toxin is one of her research findings.

A sword was aimed at the head of the first speaker, who barely dodged the attack at the cost of an arm, and then used half of his body to stop the spread of the poison.

The First Speaker, as a so-called advanced sea creature, is only slightly more intelligent than other sea creatures. Its combat power is not significantly different from that of ordinary sea creatures, and it is basically unable to fight back when facing Zhou Si.

The speaker was still controlling the tens of thousands of terror fish in the factory, struggling to escape from Zhou Si's hands. He was trying to fill the lines with those low-level sea creatures while trying to analyze the composition of the toxin, but he was still unable to analyze the true nature of that special energy.

Zhou Si did not want to linger here for too long. The bishop of the Deep Sea Church was still in the city, and they had to finish the battle quickly.

Seeing that the first speaker was still fleeing, Zhou Si slightly lowered his body, concealing his upcoming inhalation. This was a surprise he planned to prepare for the caged bird upon his return—to mask the prelude to inhalation during an attack or movement, followed immediately by...

Roar--

A deafening roar echoed through the factory, the powerful sound waves blasting away the group of sea creatures closest to Zhou Si. Similarly, the First Speaker was also thrown away by the shockwave.

The first speaker crashed through the factory wall and fell to the ground, its body oozing countless drops of blue blood. But contrary to its usual behavior, it did not continue to flee. Instead, it weakly propped itself up and stood in front of Zhou Si once again.

“Despicable outsider, return Ishar-mla to me!”

The sound, like mechanical friction, became more intense. The evolution of the First Speaker was indeed far beyond Zhou Si's imagination. He actually saw anger in this sea creature.

But what surprised Zhou Si even more was what Hai Si said: what did it mean to return Ishar-mla? Did Ishar-mla not return to the ocean? Was Skadi's consciousness not taken over?

But if that's the case, why would Hai Si go ashore?

There was a huge discrepancy between the First Speaker's words and the timeline in Zhou Si's mind. Then he suddenly realized that the First Speaker and the Terrorfish had just been blown away by the shockwave and had not been affected by the Dragon Roar.

Hai Si has evolved organs to deal with the dragon's roar, and this is the only possibility Zhou Si can think of.

"Outsider, you and...that monster...come from the same place..."

The First Speaker, who no longer had enough biomass to repair its body, spoke intermittently, its anger still burning in its words, but Zhou Si's attention was clearly focused on the monster it was talking about.

"The swarm will eventually bring you and that comet down, and Ishar-mla will eventually return to the swarm!"

The first speaker's last voice was like a signal, spreading throughout the city via the invisible network in the void. The sea creatures behind him gradually became restless. The death of the high-level sea creatures that served as the control terminals did not leave them leaderless; on the contrary, the last voice completely ignited the fighting instinct in their blood.

Boom——Boom——

A violent explosion rang out from the direction of the city. Zhou Si's expression gradually turned grim. He heard the roars of countless sea creatures and the screams of humans fleeing from the city.

He understood what this meant. The First Speaker's final signal had fulfilled the wishes of those brainwashed by the bishop, making them truly part of the horde and members of the Sea Clan.

Zhou Si had long known that they were beyond saving, but their transformation would definitely pose a great threat to Elinie and the others' actions.

The sky was still dark. Zhou Si glanced at the time; there were still more than two hours until dawn. He wasn't sure if Rhodes Island's reinforcements had arrived yet.

If not, it means that Elene not only has to protect the refugees by herself, but also has to face thousands of sea creatures at the same time.

Although no one could have predicted the existence of the first speaker and the possible consequences, Zhou Si is indeed responsible for the current situation.

I will save everyone.

Zhou Si lowered her head and whispered to herself.

For the first time, the life blessed by the world and the Ancestral Dragon fully revealed its claws and fangs. Huge, bright red wings burst forth from Zhou Si's back, and gravity magic crushed the approaching terror fish into fragments. The false starry sky was covered by clouds, within which endless lightning surged.

Chapter Twelve: The Sun Will Rise as Usual Tomorrow

"Mr. Wayne, how is the situation?"

Zhou Si had been gone for some time, and Wayne used the reputation and connections he had built up over the years to finally persuade the survivors who had gradually lost hope for the future.

"Most of the survivors agreed to leave, but a small minority..."

Wayne shook his head with some reluctance. Among those who were unwilling to leave, only a small portion were true opponents. Most of them were elderly people and infected individuals who could no longer endure long journeys, while others were people who had truly lost hope in the world.

Whether they didn't want to or couldn't, Wayne ultimately couldn't persuade them to board this ship that might be sailing towards a new life.

Elena nodded gently. She had anticipated this situation. They couldn't save everyone, and even those who agreed to leave with them might not all make it to Rhodes Island alive. Elena and the others could only do their best, and the rest was up to fate.

"Elena, have you seen Matthew?"

"No."

The little bird shook her head. She had been keeping watch around the area and hadn't seen the child who had been following Wayne the whole way.

Upon hearing Elena's words, Wayne instantly tensed up. Although he was usually very strict with Matthew, Matthew was, after all, his brother's child and the only person in the world with whom he still had a blood connection.

Because of Wayne's past mistakes, his family died at the hands of the Deep Sea Church at a young age. Matthew's father was the closest person to him in the world, but it seemed as if the whole world disliked him. His brother's family died on the night the Sea Spirit came ashore.

Wayne and the Deep Sea Church fought against Hai Si for most of his life. Everyone around him died at the hands of those bastards, so he absolutely did not want his last remaining loved ones to die at their hands.

The reason he was being hypocritical with the Deep Sea Church was for this reason. Now that Matthew had suddenly disappeared at this critical juncture, how could he not be anxious?

I must find him immediately!

With a flushed face, Wayne pushed open the door and prepared to leave, but before he could take a few steps, he bumped into his nephew who was running back carrying a small box.

"...uncle."

Seeing Wayne's furious expression, Matthew instinctively shrank back. He knew very well why his uncle was angry, but he also had his reasons for having to go out.

To Matthew's surprise, this time his usually stern uncle didn't continue scolding him, but instead hugged him tightly.

"You brat, it's good to see you back..."

Gently stroking his nephew's hair, Wayne's voice was very hoarse. Matthew had never seen his uncle like this before, and looked at Eleanor beside him with some helplessness.

The little bird didn't respond to Matthew's gaze. Her expression was somewhat forlorn. Her family had passed away long ago, and she had been practically raised by her teacher, but the teacher had also fallen beneath that lighthouse.

Since then, Elena has had no one to rely on. She envies the relationship between Matthew and Wayne, but feels more sorry for them.

Because she knew very well that the Wien Inquisitor's schism had become extremely serious.

He most likely won't get on the bus leaving Plemia with them.

"I'll go check on their situation."

"Elena, could you please take care of Matthew?"

Wayne patted Matthew on the shoulder and handed him over to Elena. He didn't ask where Matthew had gone. Matthew had always been a sensible child, and his last wish was for Matthew to leave the city safely.

"I will."

Alene nodded solemnly. She knew what Wayne really wanted to say and decided to take on this responsibility.

Matthew watched his uncle's departing figure, a smile uncontrollably creeping onto his face, his eyes gradually welling up with tears, but he still tried his best not to let them fall.

"Sister Elena, will Uncle come back?"

Elena opened her mouth, unsure how to answer for a moment. Suddenly, she recalled her teacher, the Grand Inquisitor Dario, who seemed to have answered a similar question after rescuing her.

At this moment, she chose to leave the answer to Matthew.

"As long as you are willing to believe, they will always stay by your side and become the strength that supports you to keep going."
